This show is dedicated to Barb, the Prog Priestess, sometimes known as Progger Barb.
The time I knew her these past few years was only online. We never actually met in person. Yet she was as close to me as any friends I can see in person. We initially stumbled across one another on a few different chat groups for various artists such Frank Zappa and Allan Holdsworth and a general Prog group. Probably late 2017 I am recalling, early 2018. Not really sure the exact timeline, but I do know she was a great comfort to me in 2018 when my brother passed away. We had a connection that went beyond the music.
But the music was the focal point of our friendship and this grew into a larger group of really great people who share tons of music and keep the opening minds musically.
This show is for them as much as for our lost friend, who died way too young.
Barb: May your spirit fuse with the music that fills our ears and R.I.P. (Rest in Prog)

Suddenly, you were gone….of all the lives you left your mark upon…..I remember.

Ah Yes.....I'm Back...finally. Been out with a stupid cold for a few weeks and I'm finally back to bring more sonic joy. Tonight's episode has been on ice for the duration of my illness, was ready three weeks ago...and although I tweaked it a few times between then and now, it's essentially as I designed it then. Sonically this is a combination of electronic music and organic music as would befit a show of this ilk. Sit back with your White Rabbit of choice, and dive into the latest rabbit hole from the Alchemist.

Allied Forces is a collaboration between the Skeevy Side Show and the Conflux Cornucopia Cerebellum Cocktail Hour.

Tonight this 8th Union features Skeevy, The Alchemist, Johnny "Bouldt" Reynolds, and DJ Deathwish and drives you through a large cross section of the 90's. Even in a six hour show, it seems there's not enough time to cover it all. So much got left on the cutting room floor as it were. So instead of a comprehensive overview of the 90's, you get just a swath of sound to carve a slice of memorabilia for you.

Welcome my fellow Alchemists. Tonight we are approaching the musical spectrum through the concept of Psychic Warfare. You better believe me….it’s real……well….somewhat. Not in the sense that we see in movies like the X-Men or Scanners….fun as that may be…little girls setting the world on fire when damaged by unfeeling government agents is definitely my cup of tea, and the spirit of the sonosphere presented here tonight. We must be careful to avoid the true psychic vampires that suck the life from us in our REAL day to day lives……gaslighting partners, family, friends, bosses, etc…..it really boils down to being aware of those trying to manipulate you for their own purposes. Yes, that especially includes our government. But not so hapless…we find ourselves as warriors……and here’s the war cry .... and now…..

I have a deep interest in languages and cultures. I find the differences between them fascinating. I have explored some of that through music, probably not to a great extent, but I do like a fair amount of non-English speaking music. When considering this show I thought to look into the story of the Tower of Babel.
In summary, it was a unified group of humans, speaking a common tongue, that put concerted effort into building a city that reached to the heavens. Apparently, God thought this was not cool, so He confounded them all and split them into a bunch of languages so that one could understand one another. So, to that end, we have war and distrust all the world over due to lack of understanding, for which God Himself claims ownership. I’m sure that’s not how religious folk see it, but I do find that intriguing.
But that’s not my point here. It’s to expose you to a breath of music using other languages, as well as the art for using babel talk known as Dadaism which appears in several places within the set. Go ahead and give a good listen and hopefully you find something new to explore further.

This show is a satirical and sardonic look at American consumerism, our addiction to television and the radicalization of our government and many of the people who subscribe to the extreme beliefs of one or the other. The fact that we have 31 flavors of ice cream to choose from, an infinite spectrum of entertainment options and society that glorifies the indignities of its citizens, The fact that we are pitted against one another though the use of media coercion and propaganda and that we willfully comply with the acting regime as if we had no other choice. This show is meant to sharpen your thinking and hopefully open paths of dialogue where we can engage in our differences with the hope of gaining insight from one another, rather than automatically dismissing the view of those who do not believe as you do. From that, I am a party of one. Join me and we are two, three….and maybe, just maybe, a way of existing harmoniously towards a better future…..or you can just buy something to make yourself feel better about a system that abandoned you long ago. The choice is yours. In the meantime, enjoy this sarcastic blend of music and comedy.

Welcome back my fellow Alchemical maniacs. It’s been a year since I have been bringing you my musical explorations for you to enjoy. The past month has been an extended trek of Allied Forces sessions with the Skeevy Side Show which has been a ton of fun, but has lead me away from my favorite pastime, making up a movie soundtrack vibe and immersing you in that world. Well, this week is a return to that format with a modification of a show I had set up for you a couple of weeks ago when I had to air a rerun because our studio was getting a facelift with new equipment. Wow. It’s looking really good at Radio Valencia. This show got it’s own make over when I decided to merge the Twelve Monkey scenes into what clearly was a sub theme to the animal song tracks. It begs a question in the overall arc.
Do we, the human race, really deserve to be a surviving species? It’s a quintessential question as we continue to develop systematic methods of self-destruction and then fighting to counter them. Intriguing isn’t it.
